  • Part IV - Evaluative and Critical Reflections

  • Edited by Gerard V. Bradley, University of Notre Dame, Indiana, E. Christian Brugger, St Vincent de Paul Regional Seminary, Florida
  • Book:
    Catholic Social Teaching
    Published online:
    12 July 2019
    Print publication:
    01 August 2019, pp 507-584

  • Summary

    Catholic Social Teaching is just Catholic moral teaching with emphasis upon the political and economic realms. This premise is in tension to the way many envisage the Church’s moral teaching, separating – even to the point of opposing – the Church’s commitment to “social justice” and its teachings on matters of life and sex. After a brief elaboration of the nature and purposes of CST and its dominant “principles,” the chapter reflects on why the disassociation between CST and Catholic moral teaching has come about. It argues that as a body of ethical instruction CST would be much more coherent and pastorally effective by explicitly incorporating the exceptionless moral norms taught and defended by the Church. The final section contains suggestions on how this incorporation might take place.

  • Debating “Intrinsic Evil”

  • Dana L. Dillon
  • Journal:
    Horizons / Volume 41 / Issue 1 / June 2014
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:

  • Recent US election cycles, debates about the Affordable Care Act, and a variety of so-called culture war issues have placed the term “intrinsic evil” into public discourse. This issue's roundtable affords readers the opportunity to probe deeply various dimensions of the concept, such as the pedagogical effectiveness of the term, its current use in virtue ethics, and the rhetorical effectiveness of competing moral discourses. The authors' explorations range from consideration of classical questions about the substance and circumstances of acts to a taxonomy for “intrinsic evil” to how social processes affect the discourses available to ethicists.
